A quick roundup of mentions of Port Elizabeth in blogs and tweets around the world for Monday 12 September 2011
MyPE provides this roundup in order to promote Port Elizabeth and to encourage fellow bloggers to expand their coverage of Port Elizabeth and surrounds.
The blogs featured here are representative of what happens in a normal week – one not dominated by major events happening in our fair city. Maybe I should qualify that and say; “A normal week in which event promoters have not cottoned on to the power of the Port Elizabeth blogger, by inviting them to experience their events!”
Scroll right down for some carefully selected Twittering from carefully selected Twits! Will someone else please reply to the ILoveMyTripsTwit below and tell them that Port Elizabeth is NOT the windiest city in Africa – I have done so ONCE but ILoveMyTrips just doesn’t seem to get the message. If you are signed in to Twitter you can reply right from ILoveMyTrip’s tweet below.
